00:00:01,067 --> 00:00:10,043
 (Sound effect)
 Announcer: reads words on screen

2
00:00:15,481 --> 00:00:17,517
 (narrator): In Toronto's war
 on crime,

3
00:00:17,583 --> 00:00:20,119
 the worst offenders
 are pursued by the detectives

4
00:00:20,186 --> 00:00:23,056
 of the Specialized Criminal
 Investigations Unit.

5
00:00:23,122 --> 00:00:25,558
 These are their stories.
 (echoing gavel)

6
00:00:25,625 --> 00:00:27,293
 (bell dinging)

7
00:00:27,360 --> 00:00:29,762
 (suspenseful music)

8
00:00:31,431 --> 00:00:33,132
 - Can I help you?
 - You sure can.

9
00:00:33,199 --> 00:00:35,301
 Would you mind moving
 your bike out of the bike lane?

10
00:00:35,368 --> 00:00:37,603
 - Oh, I'm just waiting for
 my wife. She'll be right back.

11
00:00:37,670 --> 00:00:39,839
 - A lot of kids out here
 trying to get to school.

12
00:00:39,906 --> 00:00:41,374
 - Come on, man.
 Just give me a break.

13
00:00:41,441 --> 00:00:42,875
 I'm gonna be here
 for a minute.

14
00:00:42,942 --> 00:00:44,677
 - A lot of things
 can happen in a minute.

15
00:00:44,744 --> 00:00:47,046
 You sit here and little Joey
 back there veers into traffic,

16
00:00:47,113 --> 00:00:49,715
 falls off his bike or worse,
 he gets hit by a car.

17
00:00:49,782 --> 00:00:51,684
 Police show up,
 road gets closed,

18
00:00:51,751 --> 00:00:52,985
 hundreds of commuters
 get diverted.

19
00:00:53,052 --> 00:00:55,288
 - I'll move the car.
 (engine starts)

20
00:00:57,824 --> 00:00:59,325
 - How you settling in, Eli?

21
00:00:59,392 --> 00:01:01,060
 (indistinct chatter)
 - Good.

22
00:01:01,127 --> 00:01:02,995
 Accommodation rental
 is quite nice.

23
00:01:03,062 --> 00:01:04,597
 And I'm excited to eat out.

24
00:01:04,664 --> 00:01:06,499
 Food scene here seems
 to be really taking off.

25
00:01:06,566 --> 00:01:08,901
 - That's right. They told me
 about you, the gourmand, right?

26
00:01:08,968 --> 00:01:12,205
 I'll have my secretary send over
 some recommendations.

27
00:01:12,271 --> 00:01:14,740
 (office phones ringing)
 (suspenseful music)

28
00:01:14,807 --> 00:01:17,643
 So, not sure you made it
 through my brief...

29
00:01:17,710 --> 00:01:19,412
 - I did, Price.

30
00:01:19,479 --> 00:01:21,848
 Delayer as much as possible
 by the end of the quarter.

31
00:01:21,914 --> 00:01:24,951
 You want me to make your company
 resemble your watch.

32
00:01:25,017 --> 00:01:26,452
 - Rose gold?

33
00:01:26,519 --> 00:01:28,788
 (chuckling): Swiss movement.

34
00:01:28,855 --> 00:01:30,957
 Never build something with nine
 cogs that can work with eight.

35
00:01:31,023 --> 00:01:34,894
 I find beauty
 in simplicity, efficiency.

36
00:01:34,961 --> 00:01:36,362
 - Great.

37
00:01:36,429 --> 00:01:38,731
 Um, here's your security pass.

38
00:01:38,798 --> 00:01:41,000
 You report to me.

39
00:01:41,067 --> 00:01:43,736
 As far as anyone else is
 concerned, you're not even here.

40
00:01:43,803 --> 00:01:46,205
 - Hmm, that'll change
 soon enough.

41
00:01:46,272 --> 00:01:48,708
 In my experience,
 bad news travels fast.

42
00:01:48,774 --> 00:01:51,110
 (indistinct chatter)
 - Quinn?

43
00:01:52,578 --> 00:01:54,080
 - Sorry, I'm late.
 (sighing)

44
00:01:54,147 --> 00:01:56,782
 I had to drop my kid off
 at a friend's house.

45
00:01:56,849 --> 00:01:59,318
 - Took me a minute to realize
 the reservation was under Grace.

46
00:01:59,385 --> 00:02:00,786
 (soft music playing aloud)
 - My middle name.

47
00:02:00,853 --> 00:02:02,455
 (sighing in understanding)

48
00:02:02,522 --> 00:02:05,057
 - Subterfuge. It's a bit odd.

49
00:02:05,124 --> 00:02:06,993
 Is it hard to keep the two
 versions of yourself separate?

50
00:02:07,059 --> 00:02:08,895
 - Well, I actually
 quite like it.

51
00:02:08,961 --> 00:02:10,663
 It makes me feel powerful.

52
00:02:12,965 --> 00:02:14,467
 - Oh, I'm sorry.
 We didn't order this.

53
00:02:14,534 --> 00:02:17,637
 - It's from the kitchen.
 They know me here.

54
00:02:17,703 --> 00:02:20,406
 (indistinct chatter)
 - Thank you.

55
00:02:20,473 --> 00:02:21,741
 (suspenseful music)
 - Wyatt.

56
00:02:21,807 --> 00:02:23,476
 What's your team's customer
 acquisition cost?

57
00:02:23,543 --> 00:02:26,546
 - $70 per customer.
 Give or take.

58
00:02:26,612 --> 00:02:28,147
 - And your conversion rate?

59
00:02:28,214 --> 00:02:30,082
 (grunting): Currently it's 1 %.

60
00:02:30,149 --> 00:02:32,852
 But it's been a slow quarter.
 - Hmm.

61
00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:35,254
 - Um... did I pass or?
 (nervous chuckling)

62
00:02:35,321 --> 00:02:37,590
 - It's not a test.

63
00:02:37,657 --> 00:02:40,026
 But what I can tell you is that
 your team's conversion rate

64
00:02:40,092 --> 00:02:41,861
 is 10 % less than
 your competitor.

65
00:02:41,928 --> 00:02:44,964
 Your CAC is twice
 as expensive and your CLV

66
00:02:45,031 --> 00:02:47,600
 drops to 12 %
 after the holiday season.

67
00:02:47,667 --> 00:02:50,736
 (suspenseful music continues)

68
00:02:50,803 --> 00:02:52,338
 - You know what they say?

69
00:02:52,405 --> 00:02:56,108
 A fool uses statistics the way
 a drunkard uses a lamppost.

70
00:02:56,175 --> 00:02:59,212
 - For support. Not illumination.

71
00:03:01,047 --> 00:03:03,149
 Anything else you'd like
 to add to your evaluation,

72
00:03:03,216 --> 00:03:04,116
 on the record?

73
00:03:07,019 --> 00:03:09,188
 (kitchen din)

74
00:03:09,255 --> 00:03:12,491
 (soft jazz music)

75
00:03:14,227 --> 00:03:16,028
 It's nothing personal.

76
00:03:16,095 --> 00:03:17,697
 The data speaks for itself.

77
00:03:17,763 --> 00:03:20,800
 (indistinct chatter)

78
00:03:20,866 --> 00:03:22,935
 (thudding)

79
00:03:23,002 --> 00:03:25,404
 (glass breaking)
 (patrons gasping)

80
00:03:28,007 --> 00:03:30,076
 - Excuse me. Sir!
 - Oh, my God.

81
00:03:30,142 --> 00:03:31,210
 Are you hurt?
 - Sir!

82
00:03:31,277 --> 00:03:32,678
 - No.

83
00:03:32,745 --> 00:03:35,481
 - Uh... okay. That...

84
00:03:36,649 --> 00:03:39,485
 That was a lot.
 Uh... sorry, folks.

85
00:03:39,552 --> 00:03:41,487
 - Why don't we wash out this bad
 taste with some champagne.

86
00:03:41,554 --> 00:03:44,090
 - Yes. Hey! Bubbles. Round.

87
00:03:44,156 --> 00:03:46,325
 - Are you okay, yeah?
 - Yes, yeah.

88
00:03:46,392 --> 00:03:49,061
 Biggest tragedy's not finishing
 that delicious cheesecake.

89
00:03:49,128 --> 00:03:51,030
 - Okay. That we can do.
 We will get you two.

90
00:03:51,097 --> 00:03:53,032
 Is there anything else
 we can do to help?

91
00:03:53,099 --> 00:03:56,135
 (whispering): I would love a
 tour of the kitchen if possible.

92
00:03:56,202 --> 00:03:57,737
 - Yeah, that would be our
 pleasure, of course.

93
00:03:57,803 --> 00:03:59,338
 Uh, let me just...
 Let me get you

94
00:03:59,405 --> 00:04:00,906
 a new table, in the meantime.
 - Thank you.

95
00:04:00,973 --> 00:04:02,074
 - Come with me. I'm Tayiah.

96
00:04:02,141 --> 00:04:04,110
 - Eli.
 - Nice to meet you.

97
00:04:04,176 --> 00:04:06,045
 (suspenseful music)

98
00:04:06,112 --> 00:04:08,314
 (city din)

99
00:04:09,515 --> 00:04:11,817
 (phone dinging)

100
00:04:15,688 --> 00:04:17,790
 (exhaling loudly)

101
00:04:22,228 --> 00:04:24,363
 (phone dinging)

102
00:04:24,430 --> 00:04:25,765
 (door unlocking)

103
00:04:25,831 --> 00:04:27,366
 - Hello?

104
00:04:30,636 --> 00:04:33,005
 Hello?
 (keys jingling)

105
00:04:43,449 --> 00:04:45,251
 (dramatic music)

106
00:04:45,318 --> 00:04:48,054
 (gasping)
 (screaming)

107
00:04:49,655 --> 00:04:53,826
 (theme song)

108
00:05:28,928 --> 00:05:30,663
 - Victim is Eli Parker.

109
00:05:30,730 --> 00:05:33,199
 30 years old.
 BC driver's licence.

110
00:05:33,265 --> 00:05:35,301
 Cleaning woman who found him
 at 7 AM

111
00:05:35,368 --> 00:05:37,636
 said that he's been at
 this rental for a month.

112
00:05:37,703 --> 00:05:39,505
 (intriguing music)

113
00:05:39,572 --> 00:05:41,340
 Um... killer hits him
 with the bookend,

114
00:05:41,407 --> 00:05:43,008
 suffocates him with the pillow.

115
00:05:43,075 --> 00:05:45,010
 Looks like they came in
 through the patio door.

116
00:05:46,479 --> 00:05:48,981
 - When are you writing
 your Detective Boards?

117
00:05:49,048 --> 00:05:51,250
 (distant sirens wailing)
 - Next month.

118
00:05:52,051 --> 00:05:53,586
 - Good luck.
 (sighing)

119
00:05:54,887 --> 00:05:56,989
 (sighing)

120
00:05:57,056 --> 00:05:59,458
 - Killer bashes him
 in the head.

121
00:05:59,525 --> 00:06:03,562
 He's, uh, hurt... bad,
 but not dead yet.

122
00:06:03,629 --> 00:06:06,365
 Why not finish the job
 with another blow?

123
00:06:06,432 --> 00:06:08,334
 It's faster
 than a suffocation.

124
00:06:08,401 --> 00:06:10,069
 - Well, neighbours
 are pretty close.

125
00:06:10,136 --> 00:06:13,639
 Guy screams for help,
 the killer panicked and...

126
00:06:13,706 --> 00:06:16,208
 ...put the pillow on him.
 Lights out.

127
00:06:16,275 --> 00:06:18,144
 - A BandE gone wrong?

128
00:06:18,210 --> 00:06:19,512
 - Short-term rental.

129
00:06:19,578 --> 00:06:21,781
 Not the smartest place
 for a turnover.

130
00:06:21,847 --> 00:06:23,616
 Very few valuables.

131
00:06:23,682 --> 00:06:25,851
 - Didn't even take the laptop.

132
00:06:25,918 --> 00:06:29,588
 Normally, thieves have
 a methodical system

133
00:06:29,655 --> 00:06:31,590
 for going through drawers.
 Start at the bottom,

134
00:06:31,657 --> 00:06:33,993
 move to the top, but this is...

135
00:06:34,059 --> 00:06:35,261
 ...overkill.

136
00:06:35,327 --> 00:06:37,263
 - Yeah, like the BandE.

137
00:06:37,329 --> 00:06:39,432
 See, usually
 the trick is to, uh,

138
00:06:39,498 --> 00:06:42,735
 break and enter
 through the same passageway,

139
00:06:42,802 --> 00:06:44,804
 but our killer didn't
 come through the patio.

140
00:06:44,870 --> 00:06:47,740
 (police sirens wailing)
 After they, uh, broke the door,

141
00:06:47,807 --> 00:06:50,409
 they would've tracked
 glass inside, but...

142
00:06:50,476 --> 00:06:52,912
 I don't see any shards
 on the carpet.

143
00:06:52,978 --> 00:06:56,849
 Break-in was staged,
 as was the turnover.

144
00:06:56,916 --> 00:06:58,551
 Because our killer wanted
 to hide the fact

145
00:06:58,617 --> 00:07:00,386
 that they walked
 through the front door.

146
00:07:00,453 --> 00:07:01,587
 - Yeah. Meaning
 they had a key,

147
00:07:01,654 --> 00:07:04,890
 or Eli here opened
 the door for them.

148
00:07:04,957 --> 00:07:06,459
 We know if he was
 here on business?

149
00:07:06,525 --> 00:07:11,063
 - Could be. With a side of, uh,
 pleasure? Borealis guide.

150
00:07:11,130 --> 00:07:13,032
 (exhaling loudly): That is
 out of my price range.

151
00:07:13,098 --> 00:07:16,068
 - A rare splurge at
 a world-class restaurant

152
00:07:16,135 --> 00:07:17,837
 sets the soul aflame.

153
00:07:17,903 --> 00:07:19,472
 Okay.

154
00:07:20,573 --> 00:07:23,943
 Any idea who was last to see
 Eli Parker alive?

155
00:07:24,009 --> 00:07:25,744
 - We're still working on that.

156
00:07:25,811 --> 00:07:27,713
 (grunting): Two, three.

157
00:07:28,948 --> 00:07:30,316
 (sighing)

158
00:07:31,650 --> 00:07:34,220
 (sighing): Yeah, put him back.

159
00:07:34,286 --> 00:07:35,621
 (phone dinging)

160
00:07:35,688 --> 00:07:37,256
 (sighing)

161
00:07:37,323 --> 00:07:38,824
 (grunting)

162
00:07:38,891 --> 00:07:41,260
 Maybe Quinn Hartnet
 because Eli missed

163
00:07:41,327 --> 00:07:43,963
 five calls from him
 last night.

164
00:07:44,029 --> 00:07:45,731
 (echoing gavel)

165
00:07:46,799 --> 00:07:48,934
 - Eli was a client.

166
00:07:49,001 --> 00:07:50,369
 I'm a wine importer.

167
00:07:50,436 --> 00:07:52,938
 I was helping him build
 out a cellar back home.

168
00:07:53,005 --> 00:07:55,641
 - Five calls after 8 PM?

169
00:07:55,708 --> 00:07:57,443
 It's, uh, not exactly
 business hours.

170
00:07:57,510 --> 00:08:00,746
 - I was able to source
 a special bottle for him.

171
00:08:00,813 --> 00:08:02,681
 I needed his go-ahead
 before purchasing.

172
00:08:02,748 --> 00:08:04,917
 - Must've been
 out of a Beaujolais.

173
00:08:04,984 --> 00:08:06,418
 Can we come inside, please?

174
00:08:06,485 --> 00:08:09,355
 (suspenseful music)

175
00:08:09,421 --> 00:08:10,856
 (door shutting)

176
00:08:13,192 --> 00:08:15,961
 - We slept together
 a couple of times.

177
00:08:16,028 --> 00:08:17,229
 We met at a bar,

178
00:08:17,296 --> 00:08:19,498
 we both liked good food,
 so we had a few dinners.

179
00:08:19,565 --> 00:08:20,599
 It was stupid.

180
00:08:20,666 --> 00:08:23,168
 But last week he ghosted me.

181
00:08:23,235 --> 00:08:25,170
 I called him.
 I wanted some closure.

182
00:08:25,237 --> 00:08:27,773
 - And where were you last night?

183
00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:29,441
 - At Sonneta.

184
00:08:29,508 --> 00:08:33,379
 An Italian place on King. I was
 celebrating a friend's 40th.

185
00:08:33,445 --> 00:08:35,514
 - And what else
 do you know about Eli?

186
00:08:35,581 --> 00:08:38,117
 - He worked for
 a massive company.

187
00:08:38,183 --> 00:08:39,451
 He was pulling
 80-hour weeks.

188
00:08:39,518 --> 00:08:41,287
 (inhaling deeply)

189
00:08:41,353 --> 00:08:42,888
 Last we spoke,

190
00:08:42,955 --> 00:08:45,691
 he said that he was about
 to make some enemies at work.

191
00:08:45,758 --> 00:08:47,626
 (suspenseful music)

192
00:08:47,693 --> 00:08:50,029
 - Our victim was a business
 management consultant

193
00:08:50,095 --> 00:08:51,564
 at McQueen?

194
00:08:51,630 --> 00:08:54,133
 - Yeah. The company
 that advises other companies

195
00:08:54,199 --> 00:08:55,868
 on how to run
 more efficiently.

196
00:08:55,935 --> 00:08:58,671
 - Though Eli's boss said
 that he was one of McQueen's

197
00:08:58,737 --> 00:09:02,575
 top consultants because he was
 relentless and uncompromising.

198
00:09:02,641 --> 00:09:06,845
 - So, we have a young, overpaid
 victim whose purpose it was

199
00:09:06,912 --> 00:09:09,181
 to tell older, more
 experienced employees

200
00:09:09,248 --> 00:09:10,983
 how to do
 their jobs better.

201
00:09:11,050 --> 00:09:13,852
 That will buy you
 a long list of enemies.

202
00:09:13,919 --> 00:09:16,956
 - Yeah, Eli's from the, uh,
 McQueen Vancouver office,

203
00:09:17,022 --> 00:09:19,291
 but he's practically a nomad,
 living out of a suitcase,

204
00:09:19,358 --> 00:09:21,393
 ready to be deployed
 to a new city

205
00:09:21,460 --> 00:09:23,462
 at the drop of a hat
 for months at a time.

206
00:09:23,529 --> 00:09:25,831
 - Uh, he's been stationed
 in Toronto for the last month

207
00:09:25,898 --> 00:09:28,300
 at an e-commerce giant
 by the name of Solara.

208
00:09:28,367 --> 00:09:31,203
 He's been working on labour
 analysis for the company.

209
00:09:31,270 --> 00:09:32,671
 - What were his findings?

210
00:09:32,738 --> 00:09:34,673
 - I'm sure he hadn't
 finished his report.

211
00:09:34,740 --> 00:09:37,543
 - Yeah, he was last seen
 leaving Solara's offices

212
00:09:37,610 --> 00:09:39,244
 last night at 6:30 PM,

213
00:09:39,311 --> 00:09:42,181
 so that paired with Da Silva's
 pathology report, that, uh,

214
00:09:42,247 --> 00:09:45,517
 places his time of death
 between 9 PM and midnight.

215
00:09:46,318 --> 00:09:49,555
 - Anything else about this man,
 aside from his job?

216
00:09:49,622 --> 00:09:53,525
 - Yeah. Uh, so, in his
 scarce spare time,

217
00:09:53,592 --> 00:09:56,428
 Eli would use his expense
 account to, uh,

218
00:09:56,495 --> 00:09:58,263
 fund his one apparent hobby,

219
00:09:58,330 --> 00:10:00,033
 eating out of the city's
 best restaurants.

220
00:10:00,299 --> 00:10:01,767
 It's his credit card statement.

221
00:10:01,834 --> 00:10:04,637
 (buzzing noise afar)
 - Man after my own heart.

222
00:10:04,703 --> 00:10:06,405
 Edulis?

223
00:10:06,472 --> 00:10:08,407
 PSP? Alo?

224
00:10:08,474 --> 00:10:09,742
 Dreyfus!
 (gasping)

225
00:10:09,808 --> 00:10:12,444
 These are all
 Borealis-starred restaurants.

226
00:10:12,511 --> 00:10:15,114
 I save for a birthday or
 an anniversary to go here.

227
00:10:15,180 --> 00:10:16,615
 - Not me.

228
00:10:16,682 --> 00:10:18,417
 Look, I like food as much
 as the next guy,

229
00:10:18,484 --> 00:10:20,786
 but take me to Burger Drops,
 I'm a happy girl.

230
00:10:20,853 --> 00:10:24,590
 All this fine dining pomp...

231
00:10:24,657 --> 00:10:26,525
 (grunting): Some people like
 to eat with their cutlery.

232
00:10:26,592 --> 00:10:27,860
 (chuckling)

233
00:10:27,926 --> 00:10:30,562
 A little pomp is okay once
 in a while, but, uh,

234
00:10:30,629 --> 00:10:33,932
 no, this guy? He'd go back
 to some of these places

235
00:10:33,999 --> 00:10:35,601
 two or three times.

236
00:10:35,668 --> 00:10:38,070
 - I'd be a regular at any
 of these places if I could.

237
00:10:38,137 --> 00:10:42,908
 - For Eli to have an expense
 account as bottomless as this?

238
00:10:42,975 --> 00:10:45,310
 He'd have to be one hell
 of a consultant.

239
00:10:45,377 --> 00:10:46,779
 (intriguing music)

240
00:10:46,845 --> 00:10:49,014
 - Looks like Eli brought his
 expertise and scrutiny

241
00:10:49,081 --> 00:10:50,449
 to everything he did.

242
00:10:50,516 --> 00:10:53,152
 I found his blog on an open tab
 on his computer.

243
00:10:53,218 --> 00:10:55,154
 Check out these posts.

244
00:10:55,220 --> 00:10:57,022
 "An Efficient Market
 is a Happy One."

245
00:10:57,089 --> 00:10:59,024
 "Oligopoly of Umbrian Truffles."

246
00:10:59,091 --> 00:11:01,860
 - "Anaxagoras,"
 Ancient Greek philosopher.

247
00:11:01,927 --> 00:11:03,829
 That's a deep cut, uh...

248
00:11:03,896 --> 00:11:06,231
 What's that post about, huh?

249
00:11:07,566 --> 00:11:09,935
 - It wasn't published yet.
 Still a work in progress.

250
00:11:10,002 --> 00:11:15,407
 - 55, 92... 136.
 Was that a hidden password?

251
00:11:15,474 --> 00:11:17,476
 - An asterisk denotes
 multiplication,

252
00:11:17,543 --> 00:11:19,578
 but if so, he needs to get his
 math checked.

253
00:11:19,645 --> 00:11:23,182
 (grunting): Everything has
 a natural explanation.

254
00:11:23,248 --> 00:11:26,585
 I don't see Eli as the type
 to make a careless mistake.

255
00:11:26,652 --> 00:11:29,955
 - I was also able to crack
 into his work files.

256
00:11:30,022 --> 00:11:32,991
 Here's what he was working
 on for Solara. It's... intense.

257
00:11:33,058 --> 00:11:35,961
 - Oh. What are we looking at?

258
00:11:36,028 --> 00:11:38,697
 - These groups represent
 all 300 employees,

259
00:11:38,764 --> 00:11:40,165
 but he gave them codenames.

260
00:11:40,232 --> 00:11:43,836
 - He was analyzing the workflow
 of the entire company.

261
00:11:43,902 --> 00:11:47,239
 - He was trying to figure out
 who to fire.

262
00:11:47,306 --> 00:11:51,477
 Kiwi Wing Group.
 Combined income of $6,000,000.

263
00:11:51,543 --> 00:11:54,146
 (chuckling): I like this kid.
 He's smart.

264
00:11:54,213 --> 00:11:57,349
 Kiwis are flightless birds,
 hence the, uh,

265
00:11:57,416 --> 00:12:00,419
 kiwi wing is,
 uh, redundant.

266
00:12:00,486 --> 00:12:01,720
 - Hmm.

267
00:12:01,787 --> 00:12:04,089
 Eli wasn't just any consultant.

268
00:12:04,156 --> 00:12:05,657
 He was a corporate executioner.

269
00:12:05,724 --> 00:12:07,259
 - Question is:

270
00:12:07,326 --> 00:12:09,528
 Did someone kill him before
 he could have them fired?

271
00:12:11,697 --> 00:12:12,831
 - As Chief
 Transformation Officer,

272
00:12:12,898 --> 00:12:14,867
 it's my job to optimize Solara.

273
00:12:14,933 --> 00:12:16,068
 (office phone ringing)
 Reorganize.

274
00:12:16,135 --> 00:12:18,537
 With AI coming for us,
 we need to be agile.

275
00:12:18,604 --> 00:12:19,905
 Lean.

276
00:12:19,972 --> 00:12:23,008
 - So you hired Eli to
 essentially figure out

277
00:12:23,075 --> 00:12:24,309
 who to fire.

278
00:12:24,376 --> 00:12:26,078
 - Eli was tasked
 with delayering.

279
00:12:26,145 --> 00:12:27,513
 (chuckling)

280
00:12:27,579 --> 00:12:29,348
 - Hey, delayering. Is that
 what we're calling it now?

281
00:12:29,414 --> 00:12:32,918
 Okay. Uh, who else knew
 that Eli was delayering?

282
00:12:32,985 --> 00:12:34,686
 - Myself and the Board.

283
00:12:34,753 --> 00:12:37,356
 (office din)

284
00:12:37,422 --> 00:12:39,525
 - Well, I think you oughta know.

285
00:12:39,591 --> 00:12:41,193
 "Sanson"?

286
00:12:41,260 --> 00:12:44,196
 That is the name of, uh,
 Marie-Antoinette's executioner.

287
00:12:44,263 --> 00:12:45,964
 - Hmm.

288
00:12:47,132 --> 00:12:48,600
 - Come on, Price.

289
00:12:48,667 --> 00:12:52,037
 New face, hermetically sealed
 temporary office,

290
00:12:52,104 --> 00:12:54,373
 personal printer?
 I think you, uh,

291
00:12:54,439 --> 00:12:58,443
 underestimate the intelligence
 of your employees.

292
00:12:58,510 --> 00:13:01,079
 (muffled indistinct chatter)

293
00:13:03,816 --> 00:13:06,819
 - Eli interviewed everyone
 at our company.

294
00:13:06,885 --> 00:13:09,121
 We said it was just
 for analytics, but

295
00:13:09,188 --> 00:13:11,056
 it's possible that some
 may have figured it out.

296
00:13:11,123 --> 00:13:12,624
 - We're going to need to see

297
00:13:12,691 --> 00:13:14,193
 the employees listed
 in the Kiwi Wing.

298
00:13:14,259 --> 00:13:15,194
 - The what?

299
00:13:15,260 --> 00:13:16,929
 - Uh, the name of the group

300
00:13:16,995 --> 00:13:18,730
 Eli was planning to delayer
 $6,000,000 in salary?

301
00:13:18,797 --> 00:13:20,899
 - Eli never gave me any list.

302
00:13:20,966 --> 00:13:22,467
 He was still
 conducting evaluations

303
00:13:22,534 --> 00:13:23,969
 and was supposed
 to present his findings

304
00:13:24,036 --> 00:13:25,037
 at a Board meeting
 tomorrow.

305
00:13:25,103 --> 00:13:26,271
 - Oh.

306
00:13:26,338 --> 00:13:29,541
 But I'm sure
 a smart CTO like you

307
00:13:29,608 --> 00:13:31,476
 would've nudged
 Eli in the direction

308
00:13:31,543 --> 00:13:33,745
 of where best
 to trim the fat.

309
00:13:33,812 --> 00:13:35,981
 - Yeah. Middle management.

310
00:13:36,048 --> 00:13:37,549
 It's where we have
 a lot of redundancies.

311
00:13:37,616 --> 00:13:39,985
 - And did any of them
 get the feeling that

312
00:13:40,052 --> 00:13:42,054
 Eli was coming
 after them?

313
00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:44,256
 Did they feel
 the shadow of the blade?

314
00:13:44,323 --> 00:13:47,259
 - Yeah. Wyatt Turner.

315
00:13:47,326 --> 00:13:48,694
 After his interview yesterday,

316
00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:51,096
 he waited outside
 till Eli left for the night.

317
00:13:51,163 --> 00:13:54,099
 (dramatic music)
 Security had to intervene.

318
00:13:56,435 --> 00:13:58,136
 - I just wanted him to cut
 the crap

319
00:13:58,203 --> 00:14:00,005
 and have an honest conversation
 yesterday. That's it.

320
00:14:00,072 --> 00:14:02,374
 - Is that why security was
 dispatched to intervene?

321
00:14:02,441 --> 00:14:05,143
 (construction din)
 - I was... frustrated.

322
00:14:05,210 --> 00:14:07,012
 Fair enough. But that's all.

323
00:14:07,079 --> 00:14:08,814
 I mean.
 (scoffing)

324
00:14:08,881 --> 00:14:11,149
 Do you know how much I make?

325
00:14:11,216 --> 00:14:12,818
 $200,000.

326
00:14:12,885 --> 00:14:15,954
 I told Eli
 he should be hunting whales.

327
00:14:16,021 --> 00:14:18,290
 And not wasting his time
 chasing minnows.

328
00:14:18,357 --> 00:14:20,259
 - Sounds like you
 should be infuriated.

329
00:14:20,325 --> 00:14:23,328
 Learning some kid is in charge
 of your future?

330
00:14:23,395 --> 00:14:25,330
 - He said that,

331
00:14:25,397 --> 00:14:28,934
 "If I deserve my job,
 that I have no problem

332
00:14:29,001 --> 00:14:31,003
 and that, uh, the data
 will speak for itself."

333
00:14:31,069 --> 00:14:32,771
 - When was the last time
 you saw Eli?

334
00:14:32,838 --> 00:14:34,106
 (intriguing music)
 - After work.

335
00:14:34,172 --> 00:14:36,875
 I did wanna talk more.
 You know, to make my case.

336
00:14:36,942 --> 00:14:40,445
 But he said he had a meeting
 and hopped on his bike and left.

337
00:14:40,512 --> 00:14:44,283
 - Wyatt's husband was his only
 alibi at the time of the murder,

338
00:14:44,349 --> 00:14:45,984
 so he's still a suspect.

339
00:14:46,051 --> 00:14:47,486
 What do you got?
 (indistinct chatter)

340
00:14:47,552 --> 00:14:50,088
 - Eli's, uh, bikeshare
 Toronto account.

341
00:14:50,155 --> 00:14:53,025
 Uh, seems that right after his
 conversation with Wyatt,

342
00:14:53,091 --> 00:14:56,561
 he, uh, picked up
 a bike outside Solara,

343
00:14:56,628 --> 00:15:00,033
 dropped it at Harbord
 and Spadina, 7 PM.

344
00:15:00,465 --> 00:15:02,935
 What if Wyatt followed him?

345
00:15:03,001 --> 00:15:06,505
 - To where? Uh, Eli didn't have
 any credit charges on Monday.

346
00:15:06,571 --> 00:15:09,942
 - But, remember? He did, um.

347
00:15:10,008 --> 00:15:12,444
 He did have this in his pocket.
 Pineapple.

348
00:15:12,511 --> 00:15:14,613
 (suspenseful music)
 Symbol of hospitality.

349
00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:16,581
 - Or swingers.
 (approaching footsteps)

350
00:15:16,648 --> 00:15:18,083
 - Oh, I know where that's from.

351
00:15:18,150 --> 00:15:20,485
 - I pray it's the former.

352
00:15:20,552 --> 00:15:23,555
 (intriguing music)

353
00:15:23,622 --> 00:15:25,657
 Isadora...

354
00:15:26,625 --> 00:15:28,593
 My favourite new restaurant.

355
00:15:28,660 --> 00:15:30,162
 Got its star in its first year.

356
00:15:30,228 --> 00:15:33,031
 Helmed by a bad girl Chef turned
 industry darling

357
00:15:33,098 --> 00:15:36,101
 and they post their menus daily.

358
00:15:36,168 --> 00:15:38,003
 Oh, my God.
 Today there's sweetbreads.

359
00:15:38,070 --> 00:15:39,738
 - Uh, Inspector?

360
00:15:39,805 --> 00:15:41,039
 - Oh! Yes, uh...
 (clearing throat)

361
00:15:41,106 --> 00:15:42,374
 Look at the top.

362
00:15:44,409 --> 00:15:47,612
 (echoing gavel)

363
00:15:47,679 --> 00:15:49,214
 - Yesterday we were slammed.

364
00:15:49,281 --> 00:15:52,551
 7 PM. Eli Parker. Two...

365
00:15:52,617 --> 00:15:54,586
 Two tasting menus and
 a travel supplement.

366
00:15:54,653 --> 00:15:56,922
 Yeah, they were, uh, bawling out
 right up until the blow-up.

367
00:15:56,989 --> 00:16:00,459
 I had to comp the entire room's
 drinks to smooth that over.

368
00:16:00,525 --> 00:16:01,560
 Cost me $500 out of pocket.

369
00:16:01,626 --> 00:16:02,828
 - So you're the owner?

370
00:16:02,894 --> 00:16:04,262
 - I am living the dream.

371
00:16:04,329 --> 00:16:05,464
 One day at a time.

372
00:16:05,530 --> 00:16:08,667
 - So, this blow-up.
 What happened exactly?

373
00:16:08,734 --> 00:16:11,069
 - I have no idea. You should ask
 my brother, Jonah.

374
00:16:11,136 --> 00:16:13,105
 He's the GM and my eyes and ears
 at the dining room.

375
00:16:13,171 --> 00:16:14,773
 (indistinct chatter)

376
00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:18,944
 - After, uh, Eli's guest
 paid the bill,

377
00:16:19,011 --> 00:16:20,445
 something changed.

378
00:16:20,512 --> 00:16:23,148
 He got loud and aggressive
 and this guy just

379
00:16:23,215 --> 00:16:25,384
 flips the table
 on the way out.

380
00:16:25,450 --> 00:16:27,285
 - Is this him?

381
00:16:27,352 --> 00:16:30,655
 - No, no. He was white
 and had a nice suit.

382
00:16:30,722 --> 00:16:33,392
 - Well, maybe Eli
 took Wyatt's advice

383
00:16:33,458 --> 00:16:35,894
 instead of chasing minnows.

384
00:16:35,961 --> 00:16:38,797
 (intriguing music)
 - Finally got himself a whale.

385
00:16:38,864 --> 00:16:41,299
 His name is Price Chambers.

386
00:16:41,366 --> 00:16:43,135
 - Yeah. That's the guy.

387
00:16:43,201 --> 00:16:45,670
 When you see him, tell him
 he owes us a new set of plates.

388
00:16:45,737 --> 00:16:48,407
 (whispering): So, well,
 Price was Kiwi Wing

389
00:16:48,473 --> 00:16:50,642
 and Eli was about to tell
 the Board to fire him.

390
00:16:50,709 --> 00:16:52,844
 - No better way to get off
 the chopping block

391
00:16:52,911 --> 00:16:55,180
 than to kill the executioner.

392
00:16:55,247 --> 00:16:57,115
 (intriguing music)

393
00:17:01,119 --> 00:17:02,721
 - Eli sandbagged me.

394
00:17:02,788 --> 00:17:04,423
 He picked that pricey
 restaurant,

395
00:17:04,489 --> 00:17:06,725
 he waited until after I paid the
 bill to begin his evaluation.

396
00:17:06,792 --> 00:17:08,026
 I couldn't believe it.

397
00:17:08,093 --> 00:17:09,327
 I hired him.

398
00:17:09,394 --> 00:17:11,063
 (scoffing): What he was
 doing was illegal.

399
00:17:11,129 --> 00:17:13,098
 (suspenseful music)
 - Uh, no.

400
00:17:13,165 --> 00:17:14,866
 Eli reported to the Board.

401
00:17:14,933 --> 00:17:17,502
 So if he thought
 you were redundant,

402
00:17:17,569 --> 00:17:19,237
 he would be well within
 his rights to tell them.

403
00:17:19,304 --> 00:17:21,807
 - Well, I begged him to drop it,
 but the kid was so stubborn.

404
00:17:21,873 --> 00:17:23,475
 He kept going on and on

405
00:17:23,542 --> 00:17:25,210
 about how he had an obligation
 to share his findings.

406
00:17:25,277 --> 00:17:26,344
 I mean, who says that?

407
00:17:26,411 --> 00:17:28,680
 - A man with
 a strong moral compass.

408
00:17:28,747 --> 00:17:30,248
 - For the record,

409
00:17:30,315 --> 00:17:32,484
 Solara would be
 nothing without me.

410
00:17:32,551 --> 00:17:34,753
 - Yeah, well, we'll find out
 about that soon enough.

411
00:17:34,820 --> 00:17:38,056
 Uh, because, uh, we do
 feel an inclination

412
00:17:38,123 --> 00:17:40,959
 to share Eli's
 findings with Solara.

413
00:17:41,993 --> 00:17:43,195
 - And why would you do that?

414
00:17:43,261 --> 00:17:44,463
 - Because we can.

415
00:17:46,064 --> 00:17:48,900
 So, after you've had your
 little tantrum at Isadora,

416
00:17:48,967 --> 00:17:49,868
 where were you?

417
00:17:51,636 --> 00:17:53,572
 - Drinking.

418
00:17:53,638 --> 00:17:55,907
 Trying to figure out
 my next move.

419
00:17:55,974 --> 00:17:58,043
 (door buzzing)
 (indistinct chatter)

420
00:17:58,110 --> 00:18:00,545
 - Just got off the phone
 with Bar Raval.

421
00:18:00,612 --> 00:18:05,383
 Price was there until last
 call, after Eli's murder.

422
00:18:05,450 --> 00:18:06,451
 - Know, I've been thinking.

423
00:18:06,518 --> 00:18:09,321
 We've been so focused on Solara,

424
00:18:09,387 --> 00:18:10,956
 but at the end of the day,

425
00:18:11,022 --> 00:18:15,227
 Eli's most important meeting...

426
00:18:15,293 --> 00:18:16,995
 ...was outside the office.

427
00:18:17,062 --> 00:18:20,465
 - So, all of Eli's fancy meals.

428
00:18:20,532 --> 00:18:22,100
 You thinking they were more
 than just breaking bread?

429
00:18:22,167 --> 00:18:23,602
 - Well, he's in a new city.

430
00:18:23,668 --> 00:18:25,370
 Who's he dining with
 night after night?

431
00:18:25,437 --> 00:18:27,873
 What if all these dinners
 were just important meetings?

432
00:18:27,939 --> 00:18:29,374
 - Well, more business gets done

433
00:18:29,441 --> 00:18:31,443
 over restaurant linens than
 Board room tables.

434
00:18:31,510 --> 00:18:32,611
 (suspenseful music)

435
00:18:32,677 --> 00:18:34,146
 - I was able to pull footage

436
00:18:34,212 --> 00:18:36,214
 from several of the restaurants
 Eli visited.

437
00:18:36,281 --> 00:18:38,083
 You two were onto something.
 - Hmm.

438
00:18:38,150 --> 00:18:40,318
 - He dined out with the same
 person every single night.

439
00:18:40,385 --> 00:18:42,154
 Himself.

440
00:18:42,220 --> 00:18:44,456
 - I... guess he was really
 just there for the food.

441
00:18:44,523 --> 00:18:47,092
 - Alone, alone.
 Night after night.

442
00:18:47,159 --> 00:18:49,294
 No phone, no book.
 It's my nightmare.

443
00:18:49,361 --> 00:18:51,429
 - Well, unlike you,
 Don Juan,

444
00:18:51,496 --> 00:18:53,031
 some of us don't get the choice.

445
00:18:53,098 --> 00:18:54,866
 Play that back.

446
00:18:54,933 --> 00:18:57,435
 (computer feedback)

447
00:18:57,502 --> 00:19:00,272
 Hey, Bateman, hungry?

448
00:19:00,338 --> 00:19:02,440
 (echoing gavel)

449
00:19:03,775 --> 00:19:06,011
 (indistinct chatter)
 All in all,

450
00:19:06,077 --> 00:19:07,112
 underwhelmed.

451
00:19:07,179 --> 00:19:08,513
 (chuckling)

452
00:19:08,580 --> 00:19:10,482
 - That's what you get
 for a two-star lunch.

453
00:19:10,549 --> 00:19:12,217
 - How was everything?
 (grunting)

454
00:19:12,284 --> 00:19:14,119
 (soft music playing aloud)

455
00:19:14,186 --> 00:19:15,520
 - Terrific. Thank you so much.

456
00:19:15,587 --> 00:19:17,155
 - I was able
 to pull Eli Parker's

457
00:19:17,222 --> 00:19:18,557
 reservation file
 for that night.

458
00:19:18,623 --> 00:19:19,791
 Set course dinner.

459
00:19:19,858 --> 00:19:21,960
 - Can I ask, did he order

460
00:19:22,027 --> 00:19:25,197
 one glass of wine and one
 non-alcoholic beverage?

461
00:19:25,263 --> 00:19:26,665
 - Mm-hmm.
 - And did he

462
00:19:26,731 --> 00:19:29,201
 mention a dietary restriction?

463
00:19:29,267 --> 00:19:31,636
 Um, on the day rather
 than in advance?

464
00:19:31,703 --> 00:19:33,271
 - Yeah. How'd you know?

465
00:19:33,338 --> 00:19:35,607
 - Lucky guess. Thank you.

466
00:19:37,075 --> 00:19:40,545
 (grunting): I didn't wanna risk
 sounding daft before,

467
00:19:40,612 --> 00:19:44,849
 but I've always been fascinating
 by the elusive nature

468
00:19:44,916 --> 00:19:47,185
 of the Borealis inspector,
 you know?

469
00:19:47,252 --> 00:19:49,654
 They frequently throw
 a curveball at the kitchen

470
00:19:49,721 --> 00:19:51,856
 to see how they react.

471
00:19:51,923 --> 00:19:55,427
 And they've been known to,
 um, drop their napkins

472
00:19:55,493 --> 00:19:58,096
 to see how long it takes
 front of house to notice.

473
00:19:58,163 --> 00:20:00,033
 (intriguing music)
 I'm thinking.

474
00:20:00,332 --> 00:20:04,769
 What if Eli didn't eat out night
 after night for fun?

475
00:20:04,836 --> 00:20:07,505
 What if he was working?

476
00:20:07,572 --> 00:20:09,207
 - Lines up.

477
00:20:09,274 --> 00:20:12,577
 Inspectors are anonymous.
 They all have day jobs.

478
00:20:12,644 --> 00:20:16,014
 - Actually got my own guide
 and duplicated Eli's.

479
00:20:16,081 --> 00:20:19,451
 He, uh, bookmarked eight
 restaurants that he visited.

480
00:20:19,517 --> 00:20:22,254
 - Well, he could've been scoping
 them out for next year's guide.

481
00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:24,556
 They rate each restaurant yearly

482
00:20:24,623 --> 00:20:26,891
 to make sure they're
 maintaining their stars.

483
00:20:26,958 --> 00:20:29,160
 - Hey, not to be the odd
 gourmand out,

484
00:20:29,227 --> 00:20:31,229
 but, uh, just wanna do a quick
 temperature check.

485
00:20:31,296 --> 00:20:33,031
 A restaurant guide.

486
00:20:33,098 --> 00:20:34,866
 We think this connects
 to Eli's death how?

487
00:20:34,933 --> 00:20:36,835
 - THE restaurant guide.

488
00:20:36,901 --> 00:20:40,205
 - Toronto's restaurant
 industry is cutthroat.

489
00:20:40,272 --> 00:20:42,073
 $15,000,000,000.

490
00:20:42,140 --> 00:20:44,042
 - Billion.
 - Yearly in revenue.

491
00:20:44,109 --> 00:20:47,112
 Big money. Big money backing
 some of these top spots.

492
00:20:47,178 --> 00:20:49,781
 - Having a star and not
 can mean the difference between

493
00:20:49,848 --> 00:20:52,083
 a restaurant thriving
 and being forced to close.

494
00:20:52,150 --> 00:20:54,019
 - One of the places he snubbed

495
00:20:54,085 --> 00:20:55,620
 could've killed him
 out of revenge.

496
00:20:55,687 --> 00:20:58,723
 - Before we entertain
 this theory too much longer,

497
00:20:58,790 --> 00:21:00,959
 why don't we just go straight
 to the source?

498
00:21:01,026 --> 00:21:03,261
 (echoing gavel)

499
00:21:03,328 --> 00:21:05,163
 - You're putting me in a very
 difficult position.

500
00:21:05,230 --> 00:21:07,332
 Revealing the identity
 of an inspector

501
00:21:07,399 --> 00:21:11,736
 would compromise Borealis'
 core tenet of anonymity.

502
00:21:11,803 --> 00:21:14,306
 - Well, unfortunately,
 we're gonna need to insist

503
00:21:14,372 --> 00:21:17,342
 because failing to investigate
 murder would compromise

504
00:21:17,409 --> 00:21:20,512
 our core purpose,
 investigating murder.

505
00:21:20,578 --> 00:21:23,615
 (inhaling deeply): This is
 our victim, Eli Parker.

506
00:21:25,717 --> 00:21:27,485
 - That's awful.

507
00:21:27,552 --> 00:21:29,421
 He seemed like a lovely man.

508
00:21:29,487 --> 00:21:31,756
 - Yeah, that's what people
 have been saying.

509
00:21:31,823 --> 00:21:33,892
 We're gonna need a list of the
 restaurants that he covered.

510
00:21:33,958 --> 00:21:35,393
 (grunting)

511
00:21:35,460 --> 00:21:36,995
 How long was he an inspector?

512
00:21:37,062 --> 00:21:40,065
 - Eli wasn't an inspector.
 - Pardon me?

513
00:21:40,131 --> 00:21:42,801
 - That man was never
 an inspector for Borealis.

514
00:21:42,867 --> 00:21:45,637
 - I'm sorry, um,
 how did you recognize him?

515
00:21:45,704 --> 00:21:47,939
 - He came by a few weeks ago.

516
00:21:48,006 --> 00:21:50,809
 He was a consultant for McQueen.
 - And what did he want?

517
00:21:50,875 --> 00:21:53,478
 - He was working on a project
 for a food group.

518
00:21:53,545 --> 00:21:55,280
 Wanted to be
 put in touch with an inspector

519
00:21:55,347 --> 00:21:57,449
 who covered fine dining
 establishments

520
00:21:57,515 --> 00:21:58,717
 for market research.

521
00:21:58,783 --> 00:22:01,052
 - And you connected him?
 - Yes.

522
00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:04,489
 - Well, what about your core
 tenet of... anonymity?

523
00:22:04,556 --> 00:22:10,095
 - For a modest fee
 and a signed NDA,

524
00:22:10,795 --> 00:22:13,164
 we made an exception.
 (intriguing music)

525
00:22:13,231 --> 00:22:15,133
 I connected him
 with an inspector

526
00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:17,001
 who focuses
 on fine wine.

527
00:22:17,068 --> 00:22:18,536
 (inhaling deeply)

528
00:22:18,603 --> 00:22:20,705
 - Who is this inspector?

529
00:22:20,772 --> 00:22:23,942
 (intriguing music continues)

530
00:22:26,144 --> 00:22:30,215
 - She's been with
 us for five years.

531
00:22:31,249 --> 00:22:33,451
 Quinn Hartnet.

532
00:22:36,221 --> 00:22:39,691
 (gate opening)
 (sighing)

533
00:22:39,758 --> 00:22:41,459
 - You wanted to talk?

534
00:22:41,526 --> 00:22:43,027
 - Yeah.

535
00:22:43,094 --> 00:22:46,998
 The... police were here,
 asking questions about Eli.

536
00:22:47,065 --> 00:22:49,300
 That man?

537
00:22:49,367 --> 00:22:52,003
 He found out about your...
 your little side hustle.

538
00:22:53,271 --> 00:22:55,673
 I just wanted to tell you
 the same thing that I told him,

539
00:22:55,740 --> 00:22:58,543
 I don't want anything to do
 with it and I never did.

540
00:22:58,610 --> 00:23:00,845
 - Well, it's too late
 to back out now, isn't it?

541
00:23:00,912 --> 00:23:02,580
 - You've no idea what
 you're talking about.

542
00:23:02,647 --> 00:23:04,082
 You've no idea what
 you're stepping into--

543
00:23:04,149 --> 00:23:06,117
 - Tay...

544
00:23:06,184 --> 00:23:08,753
 Pre-shift.

545
00:23:08,820 --> 00:23:10,355
 Do you wanna invite your friend
 for family meal?

546
00:23:10,422 --> 00:23:12,724
 - No.
 - No need.

547
00:23:12,791 --> 00:23:14,559
 I was just leaving.

548
00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:19,697
 (dissipating footsteps)
 (suspenseful music)

549
00:23:19,764 --> 00:23:22,700
 - Hey, I just got off the phone
 with our guy from McQueen?

550
00:23:22,767 --> 00:23:24,936
 He said Eli never worked
 for any food company.

551
00:23:25,003 --> 00:23:27,238
 (indistinct chatter)
 He was bluffing.

552
00:23:27,305 --> 00:23:29,474
 - What? Using
 his credentials to, uh,

553
00:23:29,541 --> 00:23:30,942
 gain access
 to the biggest secret

554
00:23:31,009 --> 00:23:33,778
 in the restaurant industry,
 who are the inspectors.

555
00:23:33,845 --> 00:23:35,346
 Quinn Hartnet?

556
00:23:35,413 --> 00:23:37,048
 - Why?

557
00:23:37,115 --> 00:23:40,718
 Eli wasn't an inspector,
 but he sure was acting like one.

558
00:23:40,785 --> 00:23:42,420
 - Well, he was, wasn't he?

559
00:23:42,487 --> 00:23:44,289
 All those dinners?

560
00:23:44,355 --> 00:23:47,125
 Um, running tests on everything.

561
00:23:47,192 --> 00:23:49,260
 It's like he was checking
 someone's homework.

562
00:23:49,327 --> 00:23:53,031
 He, uh, was inspecting
 the inspectors.

563
00:23:54,532 --> 00:23:56,367
 - Do you think he was
 looking into Quinn?

564
00:23:56,434 --> 00:24:01,072
 (suspenseful music)

565
00:24:03,508 --> 00:24:07,011
 - That blog post Eli was,
 uh, drafting?

566
00:24:07,078 --> 00:24:10,114
 - Yeah, anaxa...
 something Greek?

567
00:24:10,181 --> 00:24:13,651
 - Anaxagoras, among other
 things, was one of the first

568
00:24:13,718 --> 00:24:18,590
 individuals to recognize
 the sun as a burning star.

569
00:24:21,726 --> 00:24:23,862
 - Those asterisks.

570
00:24:23,928 --> 00:24:27,432
 They weren't shorthand
 for multiplication.

571
00:24:27,499 --> 00:24:29,934
 They were Borealis stars.
 - Hmm.

572
00:24:30,001 --> 00:24:33,338
 One star, 55. 55,000.

573
00:24:33,404 --> 00:24:35,340
 Two stars, 92,000.

574
00:24:35,406 --> 00:24:37,675
 Three stars, 136,000.

575
00:24:37,742 --> 00:24:40,278
 This isn't a password
 or an equation.

576
00:24:40,345 --> 00:24:42,247
 No, this is Quinn's price list.

577
00:24:42,313 --> 00:24:45,850
 (dramatic music swelling)

578
00:24:51,856 --> 00:24:55,527
 - I told you, I called Eli
 because we had an affair

579
00:24:55,593 --> 00:24:57,228
 and he ghosted me.

580
00:24:57,295 --> 00:24:59,297
 - Could you remind me
 where you two met?

581
00:24:59,364 --> 00:25:00,033
 - At a bar.

582
00:25:02,901 --> 00:25:05,403
 - You sure about that, Quinn?

583
00:25:05,470 --> 00:25:09,173
 Okay, 'cause we spoke
 to your boss at Borealis

584
00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:12,243
 and he seemed to think
 that he set you up with Eli

585
00:25:12,310 --> 00:25:13,811
 for market research.

586
00:25:15,380 --> 00:25:17,815
 Now, I don't mean to be
 salacious here,

587
00:25:17,882 --> 00:25:20,218
 but I'm starting to wonder
 if you even slept with him.

588
00:25:20,285 --> 00:25:22,253
 (lights buzzing softly)

589
00:25:22,320 --> 00:25:24,055
 (indistinct chatter)

590
00:25:24,122 --> 00:25:25,890
 - Fine.

591
00:25:25,957 --> 00:25:27,191
 No.

592
00:25:27,258 --> 00:25:28,493
 - That's genius.

593
00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:30,161
 That's absolute genius.

594
00:25:30,228 --> 00:25:32,630
 No, it's not really.
 That's half-smart, you know?

595
00:25:32,697 --> 00:25:35,800
 Lying about an affair to cover
 up something juicier.

596
00:25:35,867 --> 00:25:38,069
 - I don't follow?
 - Oh, sure you do.

597
00:25:38,136 --> 00:25:41,739
 Eli played you and uncovered
 your operation.

598
00:25:41,806 --> 00:25:44,008
 Selling Borealis stars,

599
00:25:44,075 --> 00:25:47,512
 starting at the low,
 low price of $55,000.

600
00:25:50,481 --> 00:25:52,984
 Not in a chatty mood?

601
00:25:53,051 --> 00:25:56,521
 We could have financial crimes
 come in with their calculators

602
00:25:56,588 --> 00:25:59,023
 and, uh, spreadsheets.

603
00:25:59,090 --> 00:26:00,091
 - If you think we're fun...

604
00:26:00,158 --> 00:26:02,193
 (whistling lowly)
 They're a party.

605
00:26:02,260 --> 00:26:03,928
 - Okay. Okay.

606
00:26:03,995 --> 00:26:06,631
 (inhaling deeply): I...

607
00:26:06,698 --> 00:26:09,067
 (uneasy grunting)

608
00:26:09,133 --> 00:26:13,571
 Eli asked me if I was open

609
00:26:13,638 --> 00:26:18,109
 to giving his client's
 restaurant a favourable rating

610
00:26:18,176 --> 00:26:19,877
 in exchange for a bonus.
 (scoffs)

611
00:26:19,944 --> 00:26:23,414
 - For brevity's sake,
 we call that, uh, bribery.

612
00:26:23,481 --> 00:26:25,583
 Um, extortion fraud.

613
00:26:25,650 --> 00:26:27,318
 But... potato, potato.

614
00:26:27,385 --> 00:26:29,454
 - Alright, Quinn.

615
00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:31,189
 Break it down for me.

616
00:26:31,255 --> 00:26:34,592
 I own a restaurant. I wanna get
 it in that book

617
00:26:34,659 --> 00:26:35,927
 or whatever. What do I do?

618
00:26:35,994 --> 00:26:38,196
 - For the record,
 I don't solicit.

619
00:26:38,262 --> 00:26:40,231
 They come to me.
 - They come to you in person?

620
00:26:40,298 --> 00:26:41,933
 - No.

621
00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:43,935
 No. It's-it's more discreet.
 They...

622
00:26:44,002 --> 00:26:45,770
 (shaky breathing)

623
00:26:45,837 --> 00:26:47,205
 They send the money
 through PaySafe.

624
00:26:47,271 --> 00:26:49,407
 It's... it's anonymous.

625
00:26:49,474 --> 00:26:52,377
 - Until Eli uncovered
 your scheme.

626
00:26:53,711 --> 00:26:57,982
 The night of the murder, you,
 uh, you called Eli five times.

627
00:26:58,049 --> 00:26:59,917
 And now we know it wasn't
 over a broken heart.

628
00:26:59,984 --> 00:27:02,086
 (sighing)

629
00:27:02,153 --> 00:27:03,988
 - Why did you call him?

630
00:27:04,055 --> 00:27:07,592
 (sighing): A restaurant that
 I sold a star to

631
00:27:07,659 --> 00:27:10,461
 told me that Eli was onto me.

632
00:27:11,896 --> 00:27:13,831
 - Was it Isadora?

633
00:27:13,898 --> 00:27:15,633
 - Yeah.

634
00:27:15,700 --> 00:27:17,435
 The Chef, Tayiah?

635
00:27:17,502 --> 00:27:20,138
 She texted me, freaking out.

636
00:27:20,204 --> 00:27:23,875
 So I... called Eli to run
 some damage control.

637
00:27:23,941 --> 00:27:25,810
 - But he didn't pick up.

638
00:27:25,877 --> 00:27:28,613
 So you called him again
 and again and again

639
00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:31,149
 and then you...
 paid him a house visit?

640
00:27:31,215 --> 00:27:32,884
 - No. I...

641
00:27:32,950 --> 00:27:34,352
 I never saw him.

642
00:27:34,419 --> 00:27:35,653
 I was-I was at--

643
00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:37,789
 - Sonneta.
 Another client of yours.

644
00:27:37,855 --> 00:27:39,757
 - I'm telling you, I was there.

645
00:27:39,824 --> 00:27:41,826
 I-I can connect you
 with the Chef.

646
00:27:41,893 --> 00:27:45,430
 (indistinct chatter)
 (city din)

647
00:27:45,496 --> 00:27:48,266
 - Manager showed me the tapes
 of Quinn's table.

648
00:27:48,332 --> 00:27:51,936
 They ordered six bottles of wine
 and stayed till 2 AM.

649
00:27:52,003 --> 00:27:53,871
 (sighing): That does sound
 like quite the party.

650
00:27:53,938 --> 00:27:55,707
 Now, Borealis is conducting

651
00:27:55,773 --> 00:27:57,709
 an internal investigation
 into the fraud.

652
00:27:57,775 --> 00:28:00,678
 I get the impression it's gonna
 be very very hush-hush.

653
00:28:00,745 --> 00:28:03,681
 - Yeah, but there's still
 another angle here, though.

654
00:28:03,748 --> 00:28:08,753
 If news of the scandal broke,
 the chefs who bought a star...

655
00:28:08,820 --> 00:28:10,421
 ...may be destroyed.

656
00:28:10,488 --> 00:28:12,123
 - Tayiah.

657
00:28:13,124 --> 00:28:15,393
 (suspenseful music)

658
00:28:15,460 --> 00:28:17,495
 (kitchen din)

659
00:28:19,097 --> 00:28:20,765
 - What are you doing here?

660
00:28:20,832 --> 00:28:22,400
 - Look, I just wanna see Tayiah.

661
00:28:22,467 --> 00:28:24,702
 - No. No. Get out now!

662
00:28:24,769 --> 00:28:26,437
 Whenever you show up, I'm left
 picking up the pieces!

663
00:28:26,504 --> 00:28:27,505
 - Jonah, stop!

664
00:28:27,572 --> 00:28:30,742
 I... you need to leave
 right now.

665
00:28:30,808 --> 00:28:34,679
 - Yeah. You know
 where to find me.

666
00:28:34,746 --> 00:28:39,484
 (suspenseful music continues)

667
00:28:42,453 --> 00:28:43,821
 - So what would he want?

668
00:28:43,888 --> 00:28:45,423
 Why would he be here?
 (whispering): I don't know.

669
00:28:45,490 --> 00:28:46,891
 - When was the last time
 you saw him?

670
00:28:46,958 --> 00:28:47,992
 - Ages... Like, a year ago.

671
00:28:48,059 --> 00:28:50,461
 - You promise?
 - I promise.

672
00:28:52,430 --> 00:28:53,598
 What?!

673
00:28:53,664 --> 00:28:56,267
 - Tayiah, you have been
 doing very well.

674
00:28:56,334 --> 00:28:58,169
 (chuckling)
 Don't laugh, this is serious.

675
00:28:58,236 --> 00:28:59,937
 You have been doing very well,

676
00:29:00,004 --> 00:29:01,506
 but you could lose this
 in a second.

677
00:29:01,572 --> 00:29:03,341
 - I know.

678
00:29:03,407 --> 00:29:06,544
 (stammering): I won't let
 that happen.

679
00:29:07,678 --> 00:29:08,646
 - Tayiah Sinclair.

680
00:29:08,713 --> 00:29:10,448
 George Brown graduate.

681
00:29:10,515 --> 00:29:13,618
 Rose the ranks, working in some
 of the city's top kitchen.

682
00:29:13,684 --> 00:29:16,487
 Maven, Gray Gardens, Giulietta.

683
00:29:16,554 --> 00:29:18,489
 But in 2022 she was fired

684
00:29:18,556 --> 00:29:21,092
 after she was caught
 using cocaine at work.

685
00:29:21,159 --> 00:29:22,827
 - Hmm. And this is all
 at Giulietta?

686
00:29:22,894 --> 00:29:24,395
 - No, Songbird. Keep up.

687
00:29:24,462 --> 00:29:26,564
 Toronto Life
 chronicled her downfall.

688
00:29:26,631 --> 00:29:28,499
 The industry loves
 to tear down our idols.

689
00:29:28,566 --> 00:29:31,435
 Exposés with former coworkers,

690
00:29:31,502 --> 00:29:34,305
 turns out Tayiah's drug problem
 was very big indeed.

691
00:29:34,372 --> 00:29:36,841
 She would pay off drug dealers
 using comped meals,

692
00:29:36,908 --> 00:29:39,477
 bottles of wine,
 money from the till...

693
00:29:39,544 --> 00:29:44,248
 So, after Songbird, she ODs, she
 almost dies, she goes to rehab,

694
00:29:44,315 --> 00:29:47,118
 she gets clean, she becomes
 the face of sobriety

695
00:29:47,185 --> 00:29:48,753
 in Toronto's kitchen.

696
00:29:48,820 --> 00:29:53,057
 She would organize pre-work run
 rather than post-shift partying.

697
00:29:53,124 --> 00:29:56,227
 She makes straight edge
 look so cool.

698
00:29:56,294 --> 00:29:57,628
 She opens her own place,

699
00:29:57,695 --> 00:29:59,497
 Isadora.
 - Wait.

700
00:29:59,564 --> 00:30:00,033
 - I'm not even halfway through.

701
00:30:04,402 --> 00:30:07,171
 "My work as a Chef gives me both
 discipline and motivation

702
00:30:07,238 --> 00:30:11,542
 to stay clean. Having a purpose
 in life, a goal to strive for

703
00:30:11,609 --> 00:30:13,678
 has been instrumental
 in my journey."

704
00:30:13,744 --> 00:30:15,346
 (suspenseful music)

705
00:30:15,413 --> 00:30:17,648
 - Well, sounds like
 if the scandal broke,

706
00:30:17,715 --> 00:30:20,318
 she'd lose a lot more
 than just her job.

707
00:30:20,384 --> 00:30:21,819
 (whispering): Yeah.

708
00:30:21,886 --> 00:30:23,955
 - When, uh, Eli came for a tour
 of the kitchen,

709
00:30:24,021 --> 00:30:25,456
 I thought he was a fan.

710
00:30:25,523 --> 00:30:29,727
 You know, like handshakes.
 Selfies. The usual--

711
00:30:29,794 --> 00:30:31,796
 - People do that?

712
00:30:31,863 --> 00:30:33,197
 - But that didn't happen.

713
00:30:33,264 --> 00:30:38,336
 He, um, he said an inspector
 sold us a star

714
00:30:38,402 --> 00:30:40,504
 and that he was gonna try
 and expose her operation.

715
00:30:40,571 --> 00:30:42,139
 - Why'd he tell you at all?

716
00:30:42,206 --> 00:30:43,808
 - I don't know.

717
00:30:43,875 --> 00:30:47,178
 He said he wanted me to get
 ahead of the news or something.

718
00:30:47,245 --> 00:30:49,046
 - I imagine that that was
 difficult to hear?

719
00:30:49,113 --> 00:30:51,515
 That Eli was gonna jeopardize
 your entire career.

720
00:30:51,582 --> 00:30:53,117
 - Yeah. It is.

721
00:30:53,184 --> 00:30:55,820
 Especially because I didn't
 buy a star.

722
00:30:55,887 --> 00:30:57,622
 I was trying to tell him that,
 but he wouldn't listen.

723
00:30:57,688 --> 00:30:59,690
 - Well, why did you reach out
 to Quinn Hartnet?

724
00:30:59,757 --> 00:31:03,160
 - So she could tell him that
 I didn't buy a star!

725
00:31:03,227 --> 00:31:04,962
 (chuckling incredulously): Show
 me proof I bought it!

726
00:31:05,029 --> 00:31:07,398
 - The app that Quinn Hartnet
 uses to get paid,

727
00:31:07,465 --> 00:31:09,400
 it's anonymous,
 it doesn't keep records.

728
00:31:09,467 --> 00:31:10,835
 - Okay, great.
 So it's one crooked inspector's

729
00:31:10,902 --> 00:31:13,237
 word against mine?
 - Nailed it.

730
00:31:13,304 --> 00:31:15,006
 (dramatic music)
 - Okay. I can prove it.

731
00:31:15,072 --> 00:31:16,340
 I have... Jonah!

732
00:31:17,475 --> 00:31:18,843
 (sighing sharply): Can you
 please show them

733
00:31:18,910 --> 00:31:20,544
 Isadora's bank accounts,
 books, everything?

734
00:31:20,611 --> 00:31:22,513
 - What's going on?
 - Just please? Just take a look.

735
00:31:22,580 --> 00:31:24,248
 I've put everything
 into this restaurant.

736
00:31:24,315 --> 00:31:25,583
 I know where every dollar's
 going out.

737
00:31:25,650 --> 00:31:27,084
 It's right there.
 - Yeah. Can't wait.

738
00:31:27,151 --> 00:31:29,854
 But we'd also like to know
 where you were Monday night

739
00:31:29,921 --> 00:31:32,056
 between 9 PM and midnight.

740
00:31:32,123 --> 00:31:33,691
 (dramatic music)

741
00:31:33,758 --> 00:31:35,192
 (chuckling)
 - I'm here. I'm here.

742
00:31:35,259 --> 00:31:36,527
 (stammering): I work till
 midnight at the earliest.

743
00:31:36,594 --> 00:31:37,728
 What are you implying?

744
00:31:37,795 --> 00:31:39,230
 - Well, can anyone else
 account for that?

745
00:31:39,297 --> 00:31:40,464
 - Yeah, I can.

746
00:31:40,531 --> 00:31:43,234
 (stammering): She was
 the last one here.

747
00:31:43,301 --> 00:31:46,203
 - Oh, forgive me, but I'm gonna
 need evidence to confirm

748
00:31:46,270 --> 00:31:49,407
 your protective younger
 brother's opinion.

749
00:31:49,473 --> 00:31:53,577
 - The prep schedule. She's here.
 Every minute was accounted for--

750
00:31:53,644 --> 00:31:55,713
 - Hang on.

751
00:31:55,780 --> 00:31:57,648
 (grunting)

752
00:31:59,150 --> 00:32:02,253
 Okay, this is pretty tight, so.

753
00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:06,390
 Judging my Monday's schedule,
 you were here, prepping a stock.

754
00:32:06,457 --> 00:32:09,226
 From 10 PM till midnight.

755
00:32:09,293 --> 00:32:10,227
 Why so late?

756
00:32:10,294 --> 00:32:12,396
 - It is for our lobster pasta.

757
00:32:12,463 --> 00:32:14,799
 It's a 10-hour process,
 we cook it overnight.

758
00:32:14,865 --> 00:32:15,967
 - Sounds delicious.

759
00:32:16,033 --> 00:32:19,103
 You know, my boss,
 she's a big fan.

760
00:32:19,170 --> 00:32:22,640
 Got me onto your socials,
 every day posting a new menu,

761
00:32:22,707 --> 00:32:26,944
 each one more delicious
 than the last.

762
00:32:27,011 --> 00:32:29,246
 But the, uh, the menu
 for the day

763
00:32:29,313 --> 00:32:31,282
 after Eli visited
 your restaurant,

764
00:32:31,349 --> 00:32:35,820
 well, it seems that the, uh,
 the lobster went walkabout

765
00:32:35,886 --> 00:32:37,788
 and was replaced
 by something else.

766
00:32:37,855 --> 00:32:41,025
 Now, there's dozens
 of variables, reasons,

767
00:32:41,092 --> 00:32:44,161
 factors as to why
 a dish gets changed,

768
00:32:44,228 --> 00:32:47,832
 but I'm guessing that, um,
 you didn't make the stock

769
00:32:47,898 --> 00:32:50,801
 because you weren't here
 until closing, so...

770
00:32:50,868 --> 00:32:53,571
 I'll ask you to answer
 my partner's question

771
00:32:53,637 --> 00:32:55,006
 one more time.

772
00:32:55,072 --> 00:32:59,276
 Where were you between 10 PM
 and midnight Monday night?

773
00:32:59,343 --> 00:33:02,913
 (dramatic music continues)

774
00:33:03,514 --> 00:33:04,682
 - I was--

775
00:33:04,749 --> 00:33:07,685
 - Well, while you think
 of an answer,

776
00:33:07,752 --> 00:33:10,421
 we're gonna have to ask you to
 accompany us down to the station

777
00:33:10,488 --> 00:33:13,024
 'cause we got a few more
 questions for you.

778
00:33:19,630 --> 00:33:21,665
 - Your victim, Eli Parker,
 was going to expose

779
00:33:21,732 --> 00:33:24,368
 a crooked Borealis inspector,
 effectively destroying

780
00:33:24,435 --> 00:33:25,903
 Tayiah's restaurant
 in the process.

781
00:33:25,970 --> 00:33:29,006
 Your positing she left Isadora
 early to kill him.

782
00:33:29,073 --> 00:33:31,208
 Basing this on very nebulous
 reasoning about

783
00:33:31,275 --> 00:33:33,177
 the cooking time of a stock?

784
00:33:33,244 --> 00:33:36,447
 - Nebulous or not, the, uh,
 the second we broke

785
00:33:36,514 --> 00:33:37,915
 her alibi, she clammed up.

786
00:33:37,982 --> 00:33:39,383
 - Okay, but she still claimed
 she never bought

787
00:33:39,450 --> 00:33:40,751
 the star, correct?
 - Oh, come on.

788
00:33:40,818 --> 00:33:41,852
 She's saving face.

789
00:33:41,919 --> 00:33:43,587
 - Where are you on proof
 of purchase?

790
00:33:43,654 --> 00:33:45,923
 - Uh, Isadora's bank account is
 clean, but we'll keep digging.

791
00:33:45,990 --> 00:33:48,192
 You know, there's a dozen ways
 she could've got the money.

792
00:33:48,259 --> 00:33:51,729
 - Yeah, until then, we can't say
 for certain she bought it.

793
00:33:51,796 --> 00:33:54,832
 - But even if she didn't, she
 still got motive to kill Eli.

794
00:33:54,899 --> 00:33:57,001
 I mean, he was about to name her
 as one of the most

795
00:33:57,068 --> 00:34:00,037
 corrupt restaurateurs
 in the city.

796
00:34:00,104 --> 00:34:02,540
 (beeping)
 She'd lose everything.

797
00:34:02,606 --> 00:34:04,675
 - What about access?

798
00:34:04,742 --> 00:34:07,344
 Tayiah left Isadora
 an hour after Eli.

799
00:34:07,411 --> 00:34:08,612
 How does she know
 where to find him?

800
00:34:08,679 --> 00:34:10,047
 - Ah.

801
00:34:10,114 --> 00:34:13,284
 Eli's restaurant
 booking account.

802
00:34:13,350 --> 00:34:14,819
 So, uh, to secure
 a table at Isadora,

803
00:34:14,885 --> 00:34:17,154
 he needed to leave
 a local address,

804
00:34:17,221 --> 00:34:20,091
 and Tayiah has access
 to the service's backend.

805
00:34:21,659 --> 00:34:23,394
 - Apply pressure.

806
00:34:23,461 --> 00:34:25,496
 Single brakes.
 - Mm-hmm.

807
00:34:25,563 --> 00:34:29,066
 - It's not just a restaurant.
 It's...

808
00:34:29,133 --> 00:34:30,801
 (lights buzzing softly)

809
00:34:30,868 --> 00:34:34,004
 Did anyone explain to you
 why we named it Isadora?

810
00:34:34,071 --> 00:34:35,606
 - No.

811
00:34:36,507 --> 00:34:39,276
 - Isadora was my mom's name.

812
00:34:41,645 --> 00:34:43,447
 (inhaling deeply)

813
00:34:43,514 --> 00:34:45,282
 (exhaling deeply)

814
00:34:45,349 --> 00:34:48,152
 She was the greatest cook...
 (nervous chuckling)

815
00:34:48,219 --> 00:34:51,055
 (shakily): Um...
 and after she died,

816
00:34:51,122 --> 00:34:55,626
 I would remember her
 through her recipes. So...

817
00:34:55,693 --> 00:34:59,964
 Isadora is basically
 her epitaph.

818
00:35:00,030 --> 00:35:00,033
 (shaky breathing)

819
00:35:05,002 --> 00:35:08,339
 ...tablecloths and we play
 her favourite music.

820
00:35:08,405 --> 00:35:11,809
 And that man was trying to take
 that all away from me

821
00:35:11,876 --> 00:35:13,978
 (intriguing music)
 for something I didn't do.

822
00:35:14,044 --> 00:35:16,180
 So I...

823
00:35:16,247 --> 00:35:18,716
 To answer your question,
 I, like, have no idea

824
00:35:18,782 --> 00:35:20,818
 where he went after
 he left the kitchen.

825
00:35:20,885 --> 00:35:22,720
 - Then where did
 you go that night?

826
00:35:22,786 --> 00:35:26,023
 - Um...

827
00:35:26,090 --> 00:35:28,893
 I was incredibly overwhelmed.

828
00:35:28,959 --> 00:35:31,729
 And it was weak

829
00:35:31,795 --> 00:35:34,398
 and dumb, but I...

830
00:35:34,465 --> 00:35:38,002
 met up with a friend and we...

831
00:35:38,068 --> 00:35:43,340
 ...did a bump and a line
 and then, uh, more...

832
00:35:45,676 --> 00:35:47,845
 - Why didn't you tell us
 this before?

833
00:35:47,912 --> 00:35:50,814
 (somber music)

834
00:35:52,183 --> 00:35:53,250
 - Your brother.

835
00:35:54,718 --> 00:35:56,587
 -I didn't want him to know.

836
00:35:58,389 --> 00:36:00,324
 I've already put him
 through way too much.

837
00:36:00,391 --> 00:36:02,693
 He's the one who found me
 when I ODed.

838
00:36:02,760 --> 00:36:04,962
 He performed CPR on me
 until the ambulance came,

839
00:36:05,029 --> 00:36:06,330
 like, he saved my life.

840
00:36:06,397 --> 00:36:09,800
 - That's why he, uh,
 works at the restaurant?

841
00:36:09,867 --> 00:36:13,037
 - I never thought about it
 like that before, but,

842
00:36:13,103 --> 00:36:16,106
 yeah, I mean, yeah.
 You're right.

843
00:36:16,173 --> 00:36:19,343
 - Well, we're just going to need

844
00:36:19,410 --> 00:36:21,545
 your friend's contact
 information to verify

845
00:36:21,612 --> 00:36:25,282
 that you were indeed together
 between 10 PM and midnight.

846
00:36:25,349 --> 00:36:28,018
 - There's no point, like,
 we did blow in his car

847
00:36:28,085 --> 00:36:29,687
 and then I left.
 I was out of my head,

848
00:36:29,753 --> 00:36:31,622
 I was walking around all
 night till the sun came up.

849
00:36:31,689 --> 00:36:34,058
 - Leaving you unaccounted
 for during the murder?

850
00:36:34,124 --> 00:36:36,894
 (suspenseful music)

851
00:36:39,129 --> 00:36:41,165
 Tayiah, that is not good.

852
00:36:43,834 --> 00:36:44,969
 - Can I go now?

853
00:36:45,769 --> 00:36:48,672
 - Well, you're not under arrest.

854
00:36:48,739 --> 00:36:50,174
 (exhaling deeply)

855
00:36:50,241 --> 00:36:52,876
 - Okay. Okay. I, uh...

856
00:36:52,943 --> 00:36:54,411
 (inhaling deeply)

857
00:36:54,478 --> 00:36:56,347
 I got a kitchen to run, so.

858
00:37:00,918 --> 00:37:02,620
 - Frank.

859
00:37:02,686 --> 00:37:06,757
 This whole case hinges on proof
 that Tayiah bought a star.

860
00:37:06,824 --> 00:37:08,892
 Right?
 - Gotta follow the money.

861
00:37:08,959 --> 00:37:12,263
 - Exactly and there's only
 a few ways to gain wealth.

862
00:37:12,329 --> 00:37:14,598
 Earn, borrow, steal.

863
00:37:14,665 --> 00:37:16,133
 Or inherit.

864
00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:18,502
 - Tayiah's mom.
 - Here's her will.

865
00:37:18,569 --> 00:37:20,971
 (dramatic music)

866
00:37:21,038 --> 00:37:23,807
 - She left Tayiah $80,000.
 - Yeah.

867
00:37:23,874 --> 00:37:26,744
 You haven't even gotten
 to the best part.

868
00:37:26,810 --> 00:37:29,513
 - Please remember
 every service matters.

869
00:37:29,580 --> 00:37:32,416
 We have built something
 incredible.

870
00:37:32,483 --> 00:37:35,786
 And if for some reason
 people say otherwise,

871
00:37:35,853 --> 00:37:37,788
 they are dead wrong because
 I know the hard work

872
00:37:37,855 --> 00:37:39,523
 and the passion
 that all of you...

873
00:37:39,590 --> 00:37:44,094
 (intriguing music)
 ...put into this place and, um.

874
00:37:44,161 --> 00:37:46,030
 No one can take that away
 from you, okay?

875
00:37:46,096 --> 00:37:47,364
 So have a great shift.

876
00:37:47,431 --> 00:37:48,832
 - Thank you, Chef.
 - Yes?

877
00:37:48,899 --> 00:37:50,968
 Okay. Have a great shift.

878
00:37:51,035 --> 00:37:52,303
 Thank you.

879
00:37:52,369 --> 00:37:53,637
 - Family meal's
 in the prep kitchen.

880
00:37:53,704 --> 00:37:55,406
 Get ready. Get what you need.
 - Thank you, Chef.

881
00:37:55,472 --> 00:37:57,308
 (indistinct chatter)

882
00:37:57,374 --> 00:38:01,278
 - Sorry to interrupt
 your family dinner. Um...

883
00:38:01,345 --> 00:38:04,648
 Chef, um, my partner
 has a few questions for you.

884
00:38:04,715 --> 00:38:07,618
 Would you mind if we gave them
 some privacy, please?

885
00:38:07,685 --> 00:38:09,153
 - It's fine. Go ahead.

886
00:38:09,219 --> 00:38:10,454
 (suspenseful music)

887
00:38:10,521 --> 00:38:12,122
 - Seems like a great team
 you have there.

888
00:38:12,189 --> 00:38:13,590
 - Yeah, they rock.

889
00:38:14,825 --> 00:38:19,063
 - Tayiah, do you ever wonder
 why Eli tipped you off?

890
00:38:20,331 --> 00:38:23,801
 You see, we spoke with the rest
 of Quinn's clients.

891
00:38:23,867 --> 00:38:25,803
 None of them heard anything.

892
00:38:26,970 --> 00:38:28,339
 You want me to tell you
 what Quinn said?

893
00:38:28,405 --> 00:38:29,807
 (muttering): What?

894
00:38:29,873 --> 00:38:33,510
 - She said it's because
 your restaurant...

895
00:38:33,577 --> 00:38:37,314
 Because you... actually
 deserve that star.

896
00:38:38,582 --> 00:38:39,850
 Quinn knew it, Eli knew it.

897
00:38:39,917 --> 00:38:41,552
 I think everyone's who's ever

898
00:38:41,618 --> 00:38:42,986
 walked through these doors
 knows it.

899
00:38:43,053 --> 00:38:44,955
 - Thank you, I guess.

900
00:38:46,557 --> 00:38:47,825
 So, uh...

901
00:38:47,891 --> 00:38:49,693
 (inhaling deeply)

902
00:38:49,760 --> 00:38:51,829
 I don't understand what this
 conversation is for.

903
00:38:51,895 --> 00:38:53,330
 Um...

904
00:38:53,397 --> 00:38:54,865
 Do you-do you believe me?

905
00:38:54,932 --> 00:38:57,501
 - We found something
 in your mother's will

906
00:38:57,568 --> 00:38:59,203
 that makes that difficult.

907
00:38:59,269 --> 00:39:03,407
 Okay, she left $80,000
 to you and to Jonah.

908
00:39:03,474 --> 00:39:06,076
 - Yes, she did. But I don't have
 access to that money,

909
00:39:06,143 --> 00:39:08,912
 which is fair, I guess, I mean,
 like, she didn't trust me

910
00:39:08,979 --> 00:39:10,481
 I was in rehab at the time...

911
00:39:10,547 --> 00:39:13,050
 - Jonah wasn't.

912
00:39:13,117 --> 00:39:16,687
 And just under a year ago,
 he withdrew $55,000.

913
00:39:16,754 --> 00:39:19,089
 It's the exact price
 of your star.

914
00:39:19,156 --> 00:39:21,258
 - How much longer do you think?

915
00:39:21,325 --> 00:39:22,926
 (lowly): I'm sure
 it won't be long.

916
00:39:22,993 --> 00:39:24,194
 It's just a few questions.

917
00:39:24,261 --> 00:39:26,230
 - She told you everything
 already.

918
00:39:26,296 --> 00:39:28,799
 - Yes, well, the problem with
 that, Jonah, is that she lied.

919
00:39:28,866 --> 00:39:30,300
 See, we...

920
00:39:30,367 --> 00:39:34,471
 We know where she was on the,
 uh, night of the murder.

921
00:39:34,538 --> 00:39:36,540
 And you know it wasn't here.

922
00:39:38,108 --> 00:39:39,376
 - Where was she?

923
00:39:40,878 --> 00:39:42,713
 - Why don't you go ask her?

924
00:39:42,780 --> 00:39:45,149
 (suspenseful music)

925
00:39:47,518 --> 00:39:49,086
 - You bought a star?

926
00:39:50,621 --> 00:39:51,922
 - What?
 - No, no, no.

927
00:39:51,989 --> 00:39:54,858
 Don't. Don't.
 Don't play with me.

928
00:39:54,925 --> 00:39:57,761
 They have proof you took it
 out of mom's money.

929
00:39:57,828 --> 00:39:59,563
 (sobbing): I wanted
 to earn that.

930
00:39:59,630 --> 00:40:01,198
 Why did you do that?

931
00:40:02,366 --> 00:40:04,301
 - Everybody's cheating, Tayiah--

932
00:40:04,368 --> 00:40:05,602
 (sobbing): No, they're not.
 - Everybody is.

933
00:40:05,669 --> 00:40:07,571
 No, literally every-every
 place is cheating.

934
00:40:07,638 --> 00:40:09,406
 (muttering): Oh, God.
 - The game is rigged.

935
00:40:09,473 --> 00:40:11,208
 People, like, do this.

936
00:40:11,275 --> 00:40:13,377
 (stammering): But you
 get so focused, like,

937
00:40:13,444 --> 00:40:15,412
 doing your thing
 and the art thing

938
00:40:15,479 --> 00:40:16,914
 and picking up dill
 with tweezers--

939
00:40:16,980 --> 00:40:18,916
 (sobbing): What are you saying?
 - I did this for you!

940
00:40:18,982 --> 00:40:21,084
 I did this for you.
 - Why?

941
00:40:21,151 --> 00:40:25,322
 Jonah. Why was it so important
 that you help her in this way?

942
00:40:25,389 --> 00:40:26,957
 - Because this restaurant
 is everything to her.

943
00:40:27,024 --> 00:40:28,292
 (scoffing)

944
00:40:28,358 --> 00:40:29,693
 Yeah, it keeps you stable.

945
00:40:29,760 --> 00:40:33,497
 It keeps you sober,
 it keeps you...

946
00:40:33,564 --> 00:40:34,765
 - Alive?

947
00:40:34,832 --> 00:40:36,200
 - Yeah, actually, yeah.
 It keeps you alive.

948
00:40:36,266 --> 00:40:38,469
 (strained): I am keeping myself
 alive

949
00:40:38,535 --> 00:40:40,370
 from the work that
 I'm doing every day.

950
00:40:40,437 --> 00:40:42,773
 It's not fair that you--
 - No, you know what's not fair?

951
00:40:42,840 --> 00:40:44,608
 Finding you on the ground!

952
00:40:44,675 --> 00:40:46,643
 Not breathing, covered
 in your own puke.

953
00:40:46,710 --> 00:40:48,712
 - That was so long ago--
 - It wasn't!

954
00:40:48,779 --> 00:40:52,449
 - You did all this to ensure
 your sister's sobriety.

955
00:40:52,516 --> 00:40:54,384
 Do you think it worked?

956
00:40:54,451 --> 00:40:59,289
 (somber music)

957
00:41:00,557 --> 00:41:02,759
 - Tayiah?

958
00:41:02,826 --> 00:41:04,661
 (weakly): It was one time.

959
00:41:04,728 --> 00:41:06,930
 It was one time.
 I'm so sorry.

960
00:41:06,997 --> 00:41:08,365
 (sobbing): I slipped,
 I slipped, I slipped.

961
00:41:08,432 --> 00:41:11,301
 It was only one time,
 but I'm back on the program now.

962
00:41:11,368 --> 00:41:12,769
 And I'm not gonna do it again--

963
00:41:12,836 --> 00:41:14,304
 - It's never just
 one time with you!

964
00:41:14,371 --> 00:41:17,107
 (sobbing): Please don't be mad
 at me, Jonah.

965
00:41:20,878 --> 00:41:22,880
 (grunting in frustration)

966
00:41:22,946 --> 00:41:25,415
 (muttering): Tayiah, Tayiah,
 Tayiah... I don't get it.

967
00:41:26,183 --> 00:41:28,185
 - Hey...

968
00:41:28,252 --> 00:41:30,020
 (sobbing)

969
00:41:30,087 --> 00:41:32,356
 I have come back
 from this before.

970
00:41:34,291 --> 00:41:36,894
 I can do it again
 and we're gonna be okay.

971
00:41:36,960 --> 00:41:38,695
 I promise.

972
00:41:38,762 --> 00:41:39,997
 (sobbing): We're not
 gonna be okay.

973
00:41:40,063 --> 00:41:41,832
 - Yeah, we're gonna be okay.

974
00:41:41,899 --> 00:41:42,900
 It's totally fine.

975
00:41:42,966 --> 00:41:45,335
 - It's not.
 - It's fine.

976
00:41:45,402 --> 00:41:49,006
 (sobbing): I'm sorry. I can't.

977
00:41:56,480 --> 00:41:59,917
 (dramatic music)

978
00:41:59,983 --> 00:42:01,351
 - What happened?

979
00:42:02,753 --> 00:42:04,321
 (sobbing): I can't.

980
00:42:04,388 --> 00:42:07,057
 - Yeah, you can. You're gonna
 tell me what happened.

981
00:42:07,124 --> 00:42:09,092
 What happened with Eli?

982
00:42:09,159 --> 00:42:10,360
 (sighing)

983
00:42:10,427 --> 00:42:12,896
 - I just wanted to talk to him.

984
00:42:12,963 --> 00:42:14,398
 I just... Oh, my God.

985
00:42:14,464 --> 00:42:16,199
 I just wanted to talk to him
 and he just...

986
00:42:16,266 --> 00:42:19,202
 (inhaling deeply)
 He wouldn't listen.

987
00:42:19,269 --> 00:42:22,839
 He just kept talking about,
 like, the bigger picture

988
00:42:22,940 --> 00:42:26,109
 and, like, the system
 and efficiency.

989
00:42:26,176 --> 00:42:28,579
 And, um, "nothing's personal,"
 but, like,

990
00:42:28,645 --> 00:42:31,148
 (sobbing): this is
 literally personal.

991
00:42:31,214 --> 00:42:33,917
 This is our lives
 and he's-he's ruining it.

992
00:42:36,053 --> 00:42:37,421
 (sniffling)

993
00:42:37,487 --> 00:42:39,723
 It was an accident.
 It was an accident.

994
00:42:39,790 --> 00:42:41,892
 Like, like a slip. Like you
 said, we slip, but we...

995
00:42:41,959 --> 00:42:43,794
 (sighing)

996
00:42:43,860 --> 00:42:45,529
 We fought.

997
00:42:47,331 --> 00:42:49,866
 And then he started screaming.

998
00:42:51,969 --> 00:42:54,571
 And I just wanted him
 to stop screaming.

999
00:42:57,407 --> 00:42:59,476
 Sorry, Tayiah. Please,
 I'm sorry. I love you.

1000
00:42:59,543 --> 00:43:00,844
 - No, it's okay.

1001
00:43:00,911 --> 00:43:04,681
 It's my fault, I...
 - Dumb...

1002
00:43:06,383 --> 00:43:07,918
 - You were right
 not to trust me.

1003
00:43:07,985 --> 00:43:09,987
 You were just trying
 to take care of me.

1004
00:43:10,053 --> 00:43:13,390
 Um... yeah. This is my fault.

1005
00:43:13,457 --> 00:43:16,627
 - Tayiah, please.
 I'm sorry I didn't...

1006
00:43:16,693 --> 00:43:19,463
 Tayiah, please!

1007
00:43:19,529 --> 00:43:21,765
 - Wait, wait, wait!
 Don't take him away!

1008
00:43:21,832 --> 00:43:23,734
 (dissipating footsteps)

1009
00:43:23,800 --> 00:43:25,802
 (door opening)

1010
00:43:25,869 --> 00:43:27,671
 - What is it they say?

1011
00:43:27,738 --> 00:43:30,240
 That you're only as sick
 as your secrets?

1012
00:43:30,307 --> 00:43:34,211
 - Hmm. Secrets grow in the dark.

1013
00:43:34,277 --> 00:43:37,047
 And we just have to shine
 a light on them.

1014
00:43:37,114 --> 00:43:40,917
 (theme song)

1015
00:43:52,229 --> 00:43:56,566
